THE New York Life Insurance Com
pany's agents sgain call the attention
OF the public TO some of the striking
points In it's history and management.
Is ability to pay ia evidenced by its
vaut accumulation OF cath assets aud
large surplus-the latter the largest OF
any company approaching itself in
paying dividends to policy holders.
This has been accomplished during q
half a century OF unvarying prosperity
aud growth. Further evidence in this
direction is that II car,ies it's risk at q
less total cost per thousand in death
and expense tina 4 any of the great life
companies.
Its willingness to pay Is evidenced by
the remarkable fact that, In 1885, 1t
paid TO policy holders some 81, 900, 900,
withC ut a contested claim; in 1886 IL
repeated this rema' kable performance
that Is, paid again come So, 900, 0OO
to policy holders, and Ggain. not q
dollar contehted.
Its new five year dividend policy,
ON any form, can be converted into
cash once every five years.
See Mr. Gilbert Raine, general
agent, or Mr.. W. ]. McOord, special
agent.
Its record and advantages to policy
holders give II the front place among
the great life insurance corporations o
the world.
The company's card is on the frs
page OF this issue.

The romantic love story and tragedy,
Romeo and Julist, was presented at the
theater last evening by Miss Louise
Pomeroy and supporting company.
Il was fairly well rendered by the
leading people in the cast, while the
minor roles were respectfully flied.
The audience enjoyed the play as Il
chang ID from Verona to Msntua and
developed the troubles between the
rival bouses OF Capulet and Montague.
Miss Pomeroy was an attractive and
pleasing "Juliet," and Mr.. Arthur
